Taricha rivularis

[huug]

Last week I obtained myself some Taricha rivularis.
These beauty's are hard to come by and after a long time of searching if got my hand on these, 2 males and 2 females. Yahooo!

Aren't these by far the most beautifull Taricha species of them all?
Have a look at my T. rivularis .......

Wow. I envy you! Thses are by far my favorite newt, but their habitat is quite remote. did you collect these yourself? if so i commend you, they are hard lil buggers to catch

Hi,

I haven't caught these myself, a german friend did.
Since they live most of the year hidden, i can imagine that they would be hard to find!

These newts are very cool but they do hide alot.I used to keep them and found them to be very shy except for 1 that would enter water at times.I would give them a water area atleast 2 to 3 inches if you plan on attemped breeding.Good luck with them.
